yeah props to him. I've always liked Jeter even though he's gay as fuck ( I don't care if he has a girlfriend). Hardworking, classy, and a future hall of famer.

Jeter is the one player one the Yankees that has a lot of class, he is a really good ballplayer and doesn't talk shit, he hasn't done anything bad in his career and this just add to his hall of fame ticket, because he will get it.

That was an ugly swing man. Props to him for being a great enough hitter to stay through the ball and drop a bomb. What a great player DJ is. I live next to his grandma and I'm sure shes up in that box going nuts right now.

actually, having dealt with yankees players on a more personal level than most fans, i can safely say the majority of them are actually really nice, classy guys. The team does a lot to promote it's image; players always show up to the ballpark in, and leave in nice suits, will almost always stop for a young fan, and are nice guys to deal with at work.

most top teams are like that, but the yankees really go the distance every time.

Thats sick though. One of my good buddies had that same exerience in New York for his birthday a few years back. Said Jeter was the nicest guy there and A-Rod was a prick.

Jeter was super nice. Came in when I wasn't looking and slapped down the bill of my hat and said "You looking for me?" with the biggest smile. And that's sick for your buddy! Especially on his birthday. I thought A-Rod was nice though. Here's a pic of that:

derek jeter is the one yankee that is impossible to hate on. he has always wanted to be on the yankees, so he worked hard to make it happen, then became captain, and led the team to several world series titles. congrats to him on 3000 hits, still going hard at 37. (ithink)

an estimated $250k for selling the ball online, or some of the best box seats in the stadium for tomorrow, 4 box seat tickets for every home game this season including playoffs, lots of signed bats/jerseys, and a chance to meet jeter?


that is the $250k question.

Big props to Jeter.

And that was a classy move by the fan to just hand the ball over to him not expecting anything in return. Especially in this day in age where he could of put it on Ebay this morning.

If you can call baseball athletes "athletes", then yes, he's a rather classy and skilled dude. Brings at least SOME legitimacy to a sport full of fatshits and roidtards

you have no idea how hard baseball is mentally. and you think it's easy to belt 400 foot home runs on pitches coming in anyhwere from 75-95 mph, while dipping and curving and breaking? gtfo, dumb shit. jeter could probably beat you in any physical test you can throw at him.

>>>>>>>Implying making it to the European international series, which is stepping point to the international Little League World Series is not an accomplishment, and that the little league you did was harder because you were in 'Merica. Believe it or not, many countries participate in the WORLD Series, and America does not always win.

You're fucking kidding right? the world series is only in America with american teams you fucking idiot. And to your other post you pitched for saudi arabia in a european tournament? Thats funny because saudi arabia is in Asia. You are stupid in everyway.

My little league wasn't just better than yours, my middle school and high school was also. You can look at my pictures to see how we did this year.

Oh yea and USA Today thinks were pretty good too.

I think he was talking about the little league world series, which is international.

But, he is still wrong saying that baseball doesn't require athletic ability, there is more to being athletic ability than being in amazing physical condition.

A) when I say <b>LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES</b> it implies i mean LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES.

B) Obviously you fucking aren't.

C) I'm using Fedora Linux Chromium which doesn't support the fancy GUI. Blow me you useless lazy fuck.

Wait... you're talking about saudi arabia little league? GTFO hahahaha that doesn't even compare, not even reasonably close to saying you've seen real pitches. Come back after you've played college or minor league, even then those pale in comparison to pro pitching.
